An eventful Sunday just passed us by, and while relatively pale compared to the high-octane action from earlier this month, the top sites dished out massive guarantees across their respective weekend flagships.

The fourth edition of Pocket52`s Pocket Poker Championship also powered down to a close last night. At the same time, the fifth installment of MPL Poker`s budget series, the Steal Deal Series, got underway.

Prem Madderla made the Sunday headlines after grabbing the day’s single-biggest score worth ₹19.39 Lakhs in the ₹50 Lakhs GTD Adda52 Big Game! The user “Badbeat4” (2nd for ₹11.55 Lakhs) & the #2 ranked player of the year, Young Gun Arsh Grover (3rd for ₹8,71 Lakhs), locked in podium finishes.

Former The Millionaire winner Guneet Kwatra shipped the other ₹50 Lakhs GTD Sunday headliner, Spartan Poker’s Sunday High Roller, taking home the ₹14.04 Lakhs top prize, ending his 11-month-long title drought in style. Young Gun Abhinav Iyer, who is well in the thick of the action at the 2022 WSOP, having already cashed four events at the series, chopped the Sunday High Roller title with Kwatra, collecting ₹13.64 Lakhs in second place.

Rising Star Aman Parakh was among the standout performers on Sunday. He took down Pocket52’s PPC showstopper, The Bracelet Main Event, for ₹4.26 Lakhs and finished runner-up in PokerBaazi’s BSS SPRINT for ₹1.30 Lakhs. He cashed in another five events, rounding up an impressive ₹9.01 Lakhs in Sunday winnings.

Shashank Jain might not have won any titles yesterday. Still, he ran deep in two Sunday headliners, i.e., Spartan Poker’s Sunday Superstack (2nd for ₹7.18 Lakhs) and Sunday High Roller (13th for ₹1.27 Lakhs), banking ₹8.44 Lakhs cumulatively.

The most profitable player of the year, Young Gun Sahil Chutani, fired up another smashing run last night. He took down Spartan Poker’s Sunday Superstack for the second time for ₹7.51 Lakhs and made another deep run in Adda52’s Sunday Showdown, pocketing ₹7.63 Lakhs overall.

Ayush Garg took down Spartan Poker’s brand-new ₹20 Lakhs GTD Armageddon for ₹4.13 Lakhs. But that wasn’t his most significant achievement of the day. The two-time Millionaire winner cashed in two more events for ₹5.21 Lakhs in total winnings, storming into the elite “₹6 Crore Club.”

Somesh Patel was another name that bears mentioning for his brilliant Sunday run that saw him take down both the Sunday flagships on PokerStars India. Patel shipped Sunday Special for a career-best ₹2.74 Lakhs, and less than an hour later, he repeated the feat in the Sunday Highroller, netting ₹2.58 Lakhs. In all, the PokerStars India reg accumulated a career-best ₹5.36 Lakhs last night.

Kshitij Dhingra was the last player standing in PokerBaazi’s BSS SuperStack, walking away with a personal-best ₹4.60 Lakhs. Sreeprakaash Seetharaman settled for a runner-up payday worth ₹4.50 Lakhs, courtesy of a heads-up deal.

After winning two live titles this past month, Alok Birewar finally picked up his first online title of the year last night. He shipped Adda52’s Sunday Showdown for ₹2.25 Lakhs after besting Vikas KN (2nd for ₹1.65 Lakhs) heads-up.

Vikas Vashishth won MPL Poker’s Sunday Showstopper for ₹72,000.

PokerGuru Ambassador Arjanveer Singh Chadha, Faiz Alam, Unnikrishnan Nair, Arun Thakur, Abhishek Sonu, Neeraj Kumar, Rahul Thakur, Sylvester Shivraj Vankar, Piyush Ravi, Karan Thakker, and Sanjay Mohan won the other Sunday majors!
